Chrona got the night off as Skellftea was able to pull off another 4-3 win over Vasteras, this time in regulation. Skelleftea's GWG was scored on the PP by Liam Nilsson (he has a particular set of skills).

MODO scored four unanswered goals from the 6:27 mark of the Second Period on to again humble Skelleftea, this time by a 6-3 margin. Anton Gradin had a pair of goals from MODO to help his club pull away with the win.

The sum total of Chrona and Skelleftea's season to date is a little unsightly to look at. The club sits at 2-7-4, which is third to last in the ten team North Division. Chrona's personal stat line is equally ugly. In 8 appearances he has 3 wins and 5 losses, 0 shutouts, and a 4.76 GAA with a .874 save percentage.

Starter Oscar Darnell held off a late rally by Mora J20, which came from three goals down to get the false hope goal in their eventual 5-4 loss. The match was Skelleftea's first regulation win of the season.

Nikita Gusev had a power play goal and an even strength assist in SKA's Gagarin Cup clinching 5-3 win over Magnitogorsk. The forward played 14:39 in the match and led all SKA players in playoff scoring with 23 points in 18 games. SKA also got 1 goal and 1 assist from ex-NHL'ers Evgeny Dadonov and Ilya Kovalchuk in the victory. Up against the wall in an elimination situation, Magnitka actually outshot SKA for the first time in the series by a margin of 45-31. Ex-Lightning draft pick Vasily Koshechkin, who was valiant in defeat in the series, was named MVP of the KHL playoffs.

Nikita Gusev assisted on all three of SKA's goals in a 3-2 come from behind Game Four triumph over Metallurg Magnitogorsk. One of Gusev's helpers came on the power play, and he played 15:20 in the match. Ex-Lightning pick Vasily Koshechkin was again valiant in defeat stopping 47 of 50 shots in the loss as his club was outpaced on the shot board 50-24. SKA now sits on the precipice of winning the Gagarin Cup and will have their first crack at clinching the title on Sunday.
